W46 •A• When Two's Company, Three's a Revolution ✨

In this week’s episode of “The Deep Dig,” we delve into a transformative moment in the tech world: the emergence of ternary computing. Khayyam Wakil examines how geopolitical pressures, specifically U.S. sanctions on Huawei, have inadvertently sparked a revolutionary shift in computing architecture. With the advent of ternary processors, we explore how innovation thrives under constraint, challenging the dominance of traditional binary systems and potentially reshaping the technological landscape as we know it.

Category/Topics/Subjects:

• Geopolitical Influence on Technology
• Ternary Computing
• Innovation under Constraint
• U.S. Sanctions and Huawei
• Historical and Future Implications of Computing Paradigms

Best Quotes:

1. “Did trying to control the future just end up accelerating the very thing they wanted to contain?”
2. “The global tech industry has been driving on two-lane roads for eight decades… it was slow, it was congested.”
3. “We tried to build walls around the future. The future built a ladder instead.”

Three Major Areas of Critical Thinking:

1. Geopolitical Impact on Technological Evolution: Explore how U.S. sanctions intended to stifle Huawei’s technological progress inadvertently pushed the company to innovate beyond traditional binary computing. Consider the broader implications of geopolitical actions on technological advancements and market dynamics.
2. Innovation through Constraint: Analyze the concept of necessity as a driver of innovation. How does being pushed out of established paradigms, such as binary computing, force companies and individuals to rethink foundational principles and explore new possibilities like ternary computing?
3. Future of Computing and Global Tech Dominance: Reflect on the potential implications of ternary computing on global tech leadership. How might the shift from binary to ternary systems disrupt existing infrastructures, redefine computational efficiency, and democratize access to advanced computing capabilities worldwide?
